Tanner Engstrand to the Giants? Tommy vs Evan, and What Peralta Really Meant
Tanner Engstrand to the Giants? Tommy vs Evan, and What Peralta Really Meant  
Podcast: Evan & Tiki
Published On: Wed Jan 28 2026
Description: A new Giants OC curveball hits when Art Stapleton floats Tanner Engstrand as a legitimate candidate after his Jets exit, citing his coaching ties and the idea that he may have been doomed by the Jets’ quarterback situation. Evan and Tiki debate whether a fresh start with Jaxson Dart could unlock something different, even if Engstrand's first run as a coordinator didn’t exactly inspire confidence. It quickly turns into a bigger point about trusting John Harbaugh, and the hilarious reality that Engstrand becoming competent in New York would only add another chapter to the “Jets ruin everyone” narrative. Then the show takes a sharp left into the station’s internal soap opera as Tommy’s group chat presence, late-night takes, and “who stole whose idea” drama becomes its own mini-segment, complete with receipts and a little friendly sabotage speculation. After that, the Mets portion arrives: Freddy Peralta meets the media and gets asked about an extension, and the crew reads between the lines. The instant “I just got here” framing tells the story, he’s not eager to talk long-term yet, and it doesn’t sound like something that’s happening soon from either side. The segment closes with WFAN audio gold, including the rediscovery of the John Heyman blow-up clip and a new Clyde Frazier drop that instantly earns a spot in the rotation.
